Questioning Humza Yousaf’s competence is ‘racist’, says SNP MSP
![]() People who question the competence of Scotland’s new First Minister by calling him “useless” are racists, an SNP MSP has claimed. Karen Adam, who loudly backed Humza Yousaf’s successful bid to succeed Nicola Sturgeon, said that he was already being targeted with “racist tropes” that were “utterly disgusting”. However, in her column in the pro-independence newspaper The National, MZ Adam claimed that the new First Minister had been unfairly criticised since he announced his leadership bid because of the colour of his skin. Ms Adam went on to call on “white allies” to “call out” the attacks on Mr Yousaf, claiming she feared the “misogyny Nicola endured” had “now flipped to racism towards Humza”. Opponents insisted that attacks on Mr Yousaf, who was born in Glasgow to immigrants from Pakistan and Kenya, were based on his performance in government roles.
